NIH Mechanistic Studies of Pain and Alcohol Dependence Grant (R01) – NIDA

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) is offering a grant to conduct mechanistic studies on the relationship between excessive alcohol drinking, alcohol dependence, and pain. This grant aims to explore the genetic, pharmacological, and learning mechanisms that link alcohol use patterns with pain responses. By investigating the neural substrates shared by pain transmission and alcohol’s reinforcing effects, the goal is to better understand how chronic pain states influence alcohol dependence and addiction development. Applications focused on elucidating the complexities of this relationship are encouraged for this grant with a closing date of January 07, 2018.

Description::	This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages applications that propose to conduct mechanistic studies on the relationship between excessive alcohol drinking, alcohol dependence and pain. An association between chronic pain conditions and alcohol dependence has been revealed in numerous studies with episodes of alcohol abuse antedating chronic pain in some people and alcohol dependence emerging after the onset of chronic pain in others. Pain transmission and alcohols reinforcing effects share overlapping neural substrates giving rise to the possibility that chronic pain states significantly affect alcohol use patterns and promote the development of dependence and addiction. In addition, long term alcohol intoxication and alcohol dependence induce pain symptoms and may exacerbate chronic pain arising from other sources. The objective of this FOA is to understand genetic, pharmacological and learning mechanisms underlying the association between the propensity to drink excessively alcohol and pain responses.
